Natural Products for Every Home #ShiftConLove

This year, my family made a resolution to be a bit more green. My husband and I want to teach our children to be responsible caretakers of this planet- and we know that it has to start at home. Our kids learn by our example, so we make strides to make small changes that will have a large and lasting impact.

One of the ways that we can show our kids how to care for the Earth (and our bodies), is to use natural and green products. A lot of the stores that we shop at for our household goods and groceries are going green, which makes us so happy. When everyone gets on board, green living becomes more affordable for consumers and their families.

My family and I were able to try out some new natural products, and I am excited to share them with you! We were sent these items free of charge, in exchange for sharing our honest thoughts.

This yogurt is exceptional. I love the taste, which says a lot, as I am not a big yogurt fan. My yogurt loving kids can enjoy this, too. I feel really good about eating this and letting the kids eat it. These are larger than the yogurt cups we're used to buying, so we usually wind up sharing a cup for a snack.

Nest Fresh eggs are probably my favorite eggs! We go through about 3-4 dozen eggs a week in my house. Hubby and I eat eggs for breakfast every morning, and so does Baby S. I want to give my family the very best products when it comes to the foods that we eat. Nest Fresh eggs are cage free. That means that no matter which NestFresh Eggs you choose, you can be sure that the hens that laid your eggs had room to roam around large barns. This leads to happy hens and healthy humans!

I don't have a lot of experience with essential oils, but we did receive a diffuser for the holidays, and I cannot wait to use these! We received Peppermint, Lavender, and Lemon. There are so many uses for Eseential Oils, including:

Reduce anxiety: Diffuse lavender essential oil around your home to reduce feelings of stress and tension.

All-purpose cleaner: Add three drops each of lemon oil and tea tree oil to a few ounces of warm water, then spray countertops to naturally disinfect.

Cleaner dishes: Add a few drops of lemon oil to the dishwasher before washing for a spot-free rinse.

I can't wait to use some of these in my home, and the best part is that the ones that are safe to use with kids have a Kid Safe label on them. No guessing required!

Fresh Wave Remove odors using natural ingredients? That's what Fresh Wave is all about. No harsh chemicals. No heavy perfumes. No toxic ingredients. Which results in no more odor. Fresh Wave natural odor removing products use simple, pure, and natural ingredients – a blend of plant extracts and water – to remove odors from your life. We are so excited to share our Odor Removing Gel, Odor Removing Spray, and Laundry Booster with you! With Fresh Wave, odors

These Fresh Wave products are amazing! I love the spray- it's perfect to leave in the bathroom or the kitchen to eliminate stinky odors. The odor removing gel is perfect to place by the diaper pail in Baby S' nursery. Those stink diapers may disappear, but their existance is usually still evident for hours after we dispose of them. The gel absorbs the odors right away, leaving her room smelling fresh. I no longer have to hear my six-year-old son yelling, 'Mommy... I can smell Sabine's stink diapers in the living room!' The laundry booster is great, too! Just a little bit helps the laundry to smell fresh and clean!

I can personally recommend all of these products to you. Each one has made a positive difference in our home life, and I will be excite to purchase these products on a regular basis so I can continue to use them in my home.
